The Area light problem is still not fixed in max2009 SP1.

1,create a Photometric Light.
2,change the light shape to “Rectangle”
3,create a plane near the light to illume.
4,choose Mental ray renderer.
5,render it

in max2008, the shape of lighten part in the plane is Rectangle, but in max2009, the shape of lighten part in the plane is a stretched dot.
